Slow-cooker

The smell alone makes you feel loved. Like mom’s been slaving away in the kitchen all day, preparing this delicious meal just for you. The problem is that in this modern world, weeknight meals are often an afterthought. Grilled cheese, chicken nuggets, and bagged baby carrots don’t hold a candle to this delicious pot roast that almost literally melts in your mouth, warms your belly, and releases the stress and worries of the day behind.
